In the waning hours of a Monday in New Orleans, the life of 29-year-old Calvin Everett, known to his loved ones as 'Wo-Wo,' was tragically cut short. On January 26, 2015, Everett was fatally wounded in a shooting that unfolded in New Orleans East. At the time of his death, he was a father to two children, Calvin Everett Jr. and Calii Rose Everett.
The immediate aftermath of the shooting saw a swift response from law enforcement.
Two off-duty New Orleans Police Department officers were in the vicinity when the incident occurred. They reportedly apprehended a suspect moments after the fatal shots were fired.
Details regarding the circumstances leading up to the shooting, the identity of the suspect, and the subsequent legal proceedings, including any charges, trials, or convictions, are not readily available in the public record. The narrative of that night largely concludes with the prompt arrest, leaving the community to mourn the loss of a young father.
Calvin Everett, Sr. was born on February 5, 1985. His sudden and violent death left a void in the lives of his family and friends, who remembered him at a funeral service held at the Fisher Community Church, followed by his interment at Providence Memorial Park.
